October 4: Greenpeace plans grand launch of new Stop Global Warming balloon
Across town, members of the international environment watchdog Greenpeace geared up to launch their new Stop Global Warming, Save the Climate balloon. Shaped and colored like the earth, the aim is to get people thinking about global warming, said organizer Kristin Wheeler.October 5: Balloon launches scrubbed due to cold weather and clouds
"This is a historical and cultural event for the state of New Mexico," she said of the fiesta. "It's a great way to elevate our message of stopping global warming to the thousands of people that will be here this week."
Clouds and cold weather swept into the Duke City Saturday afternoon, bringing unfavorably windy, rainy conditions to Balloon Fiesta Park.
The weather caused the cancelation of Saturday's Glowdeo balloon glow and stuck around Sunday to stop the Mass Ascension.
